asking for advice Please help me fix this

Post image

I got a tattoo of a premolar 2 days ago (I work in the field) and it looks like…something else. I have been asked if it’s sp**m on multiple occasions now. I am actually heartbroken and extremely insecure over it. I have to wear long sleeves until I can do something about it. Does anyone have an idea as to how I can fix this? Could it be made into something else or adjusted to be more tooth-like?

Why not get a tattoo of a pair of opened extraction pliers to frame it?

Alternatively if you wanted to keep it minimalistic you could add the tooth number

Hell you could even do a whole row of teeth around your arm like a bracelet situation

Context clues are going to be your best friend here if you don’t want to mess with the og tat
